They are really only nutrient rich for about the first 18-24 hrs without selcon enrichment which is why it is best to always have a fresh batch ready to go. After they have been enriched they will take about 18 hrs again for them to be nutrient rich and after a couple to 3 days of growth they will start being a little larger than what fresh hatched baby bangaii will go after. Once you get past the difficult 15th day of life with the babies you can safely start making larger batches of bbs and keeping them alive longer as the fish will now be eating larger specimens. At this point it is also best to start trying to introduce so e Cyclopeeze or something like it with e live feelings to try and get them to switch over to eating dead.
